slapstick
Slapstick originated in the theatre; a slapstick is made from two sticks , attached at one end so that when you hit someone with the other end there is a "loud" slapping noise as the loose ends clap together, without hurting the person - at least, not much! Strange as it may seem, the pain of others is the basis of much comedy, so using a slapstick allowed performers to give the impression of pain without actually injuring anyone.
Slapstick comedy is a type of physical comedy involving exaggerated actions, farce, violence and activities which may exceed the boundaries of common sense. Charlie Chaplin was an early pioneer of this comedy technique.
